How to edit vector lines in a previously stored file
Hi everyone,
I am learning to use PaintShop PRO 2019 Ultimate, and I am confronted with a problem: on a vector level I draw lines, straight and curved. Then save the file in .pspimage format and close it. When I open it again, I can't go into edit on the lines mentioned. In the very long manual I don't find how to do it. But maybe some of you can give me a tip ...... Any help is welcome.

Re: How to edit vector lines in a previously stored file
Hi aldobz,
when you say "I can't go into edit", do you mean you cannot select the layer where the lines were drawn?
Do you save in a recent pspimage format? If you save in version 7, for example, vector editing will be lost.
Do you see a warning when saving in pspimage format?
Check the compatibility: when saving, go to Options and see if a recent version is selected.

Re: How to edit vector lines in a previously stored file
Hi Jean-Luc, and many thanks for your answer.
Yes, I cannot select the layer where the lines were drawn. I work with PS PRO 2019 Ultimate, and i saved my work as .pspimage.
So compatibility problems are not issued.
I think, i made a curved line, but now i want change the curve and relative angles. How can I do this?
Please sorry for my bad english.

hold the CTRL key down and click on a node. Bezier curve will be active.

No Jean Luc, none curve will be active. With CTRL key down appears the symbol of "do not stop"Jean-Luc wrote:Hi aldobz,aldobz wrote: I think, i made a curved line, but now i want change the curve and relative angles. How can I do this?

Could you send here a screen capture of your Layers Palette?

Re: How to edit vector lines in a previously stored file
Click the black arrow next to each layer to scroll it open and see each of the vector objects inside of the layer. Click on one of these objects to select it. Now you should be able to access the edit mode of any vector tool that supports the object.
